Why Turkish Women Go Veiled.
Turkish women do not wear veils
because of their religion, as many sup
pose, it is merely the survival of an
old custom. When tbe Turks stilt
lived In Tartary. before the time of
Mohammed. It was tbe habit of the
men to steal such women for wives as
attracted them. This led to so much
lighting that about the secoud century
after Christ the Turks came together
and decided that henceforth tbe wo
men should go veiled and should not
meet uieu. hut dwell In harems, as
soou its they arrived at womanhood,
which was at about eleven years of
age. Mrs. Kenneth Browu In Metro

A cynical old bachelor who firmly

This is the way they marry in Buso
ga. on the right bank of tbe Nile, at
IHpan falls. The man goes to some
dance, generally given in honor of
some departed Busogan. and, having
danced and feasted with bis charmer,
the happy pair elope and go to the
bridegroom's home. This ends all cer
emony, except that the brother of the
bride visits them the next day and is
received by the brother or some other
relative of the bridegroom, who makes
him a present of a cow or whatever
else he can afford to give. This the
girl's brother keeps until be gets mar
ried and pays it over to the brother of
some other girl. Men already married
arry awny another wife in the same
way and with like etiquette and pay
ment, and sometimes a married wo
man Is carried off. but this breach of
custom Is generally condoned as "a
mistake" and atoned for by the pay
ment of a cow.
